Please Stay

[First Part]

     B
Your clothes in the dryer
     G#m                 F#  F#7
Your hair on the shower wall
     B
Your toothbrush is too much
     G#m                 F#  F#7
Your shoes empty in the hall
     B
Your keys on the counter
G#m                    E     F#
Your dirty dish in the sink
B                     G#m        F#   F#7
Please, don't make me see these things

[Second Part]

    B                           G#m
The books on your shelf that you never read
    F#                 E
The hunting knife you kept by your bed
    B                     G#m
The flowers you dried and tied up with twine
    F#              E
Suspended from the ceiling

[Pre-Chorus]

                 G#m                F#            B   E
You tell me you love me, like it'll be the last time
Continues after the ad
               G#m           F#             B    E
Like you're playing out, the end of a storyline
                 G#m                F#
I say I love you too, because it's true
             B              E
What else am I supposed to do?
      G#m        F#                 E
Maybe bar the door when you move to leave

[Chorus]

                          G#m
I think you mean what you say
         F#             B    E
When you say you wanna die
                           G#m
I think you mean what you say
         F#               B     E
When you say you want to stay alive

[Bridge]

          B
Quit your job
         F#
Cut your hair
      E
Get a dog
            B
Change your name
            F#
Change your mind
            E
Change your ways

Give them time
              G#m              F#
Go back to school, go back to sleep
           B               E
Tell the secret you can't keep
  G#m      F#
Begin, be done
        B           E
Break a vow, make a new one
        G#m            F#              B            E
Call me if you need a friend, or never talk to me again

[Ending]

    B      G#m  F#  E
But please stay
    B  G#m  F#  E
But please stay
    B  G#m  F#  E
But please stay
    B  G#m  F#  E
But please

Stay
